I seem to be getting some 5000/200 board errors that cause it to either
abort or lock up. It originally was a scsi disconnect error, but the last
one I saw, on Ultrix, indicated a buffer chip malfunctioning. Anyone know
anything about chips going bellyup on 5000/200 machines? Is such a problem
endemic to the things? I have heard one or two others locally suggest that
scsi busses on these are fragile, and maybe I am running into something like
that.... Any insights are appreciated.
NetBSD-1.4.2 or 1.4P or 1.4T seemed a little more sensitive to the problem
than Ultrix was, although Ultrix may have just let it go until it got real
bad.
Anyone else have 5000/200 scsi or mother board problems?
Thanks
Bob
